I thought I’d use this space to give you a quick update on the latest version of our RecoverGuard automated disaster recovery/high availability testing and monitoring software. As you know, RecoverGuard automatically scans your IT infrastructure to find hidden configuration errors or data protection gaps before they impact your operations. Here’s a brief summary of the new functionality in Version 4.3:
- Support for EMC CLARiiON platform, including MirrorView and SnapView. RecoverGuard also supports EMC Symmetrix, NetApp and HDS USP & AMS. In an upcoming release we’ll expand this list further by adding support for HP XP and IBM DS.
- Configuration testing support for all major cluster vendors, enabling you to ensure availability at all times
- Significant advancements to the Availability Advisor, enabling RecoverGuard to scan for risks in kernel parameters, storage routing, domain and DNS settings, patches and service packs, and much more .
Of course, we continue to add new DR/HA risks to RecoverGuard’s robust gap detection knowledgebase, which currently holds over 3,000 potential known risks. We’ve posted some of the more common gaps on this blog, and will continue to do so as time goes on. You can see all of those we’ve posted by clicking on “Gap Analysis” under “Categories” in the upper right portion of this blog. If you’d like to see even more examples, you can see them on our website at http://www.continuitysoftware.com/commongaps
